manpage.1'. You may view the manual page with: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml | nroff -man | less'. A typical entry in a Makefile or Makefile.am is: manpage.1: manpage.sgml docbook-to-man $< > $@ The docbook-to-man binary is found in the docbook-to-man package. Please remember that if you create the nroff version in one of the debian/rules file targets (such as build), you will need to include docbook-to-man in your Build-Depends control field. --> Josselin"> Mouette"> Sep 22, 2005"> 1"> joss@debian.org"> fc-cache"> Debian"> GNU"> GPL"> ]>

&dhucpackage; &dhsection; &dhpackage; build font information cache files &dhpackage; DESCRIPTION &dhpackage; scans the font directories on the system and builds font information cache files for applications using fontconfig for their font handling. If directory arguments are not given, &dhpackage; uses each directory in the current font configuration. Each directory is scanned for font files readable by FreeType. A cache is created which contains properties of each font and the associated filename. This cache is used to speed up application startup when using the fontconfig library. Note that &dhpackage; must be executed once per architecture to generate font information customized for that architecture. On a subsequent run, &dhpackage; will augment the cache information files with the information for the new architecture. OPTIONS This program follows the usual &gnu; command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. Change root directory into root before starting. Force re-generation of apparently up-to-date cache files, overriding the timestamp checking. Only scan system-wide directories, omitting the places located in the user's home directory. Display status information while busy. Show summary of options. Show version of the program and exit. A list of directories to scan for fonts. FILES fonts.cache-2 These files are generated by &dhpackage; and contain maps from file names to font properties. They are read by the fontconfig library at application startup to locate appropriate fonts. SEE ALSO fc-list (1).
